Background: Sleep-related problems, which have been associated with poor health outcomes, have not been investigated thoroughly in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We examined the prevalence of a variety of sleep-related problems in persons with and without CKD. Study Design: National cross-sectional survey (National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2008).
